Sometimes life begins to get repetitive, and our days start to blur together. Adding variety to our hectic schedules can lift our moods and make more memories! This list is simple, yet hopefully inspiring to jumpstart your day with some quick things to remind yourself, and small activities to complete during your day. So, I challenge you with this list, and wish you a day full of happy.
1. Tape a dollar to the vending machine.
Technically it's a net loss, but it'll make you feel satisfied for doing something thoughtful for a stranger.
2. Call your momma.
Nothin' better than a refreshing talk with the person that knows you best. A simple update would make her day, Moms are easy like that. So, take a moment out of your busy life and appreciate the woman who deserves it most.
3. Stalk yourself on Facebook.
Relive some old memories! Whether that be the awful dress you wore to the seventh grade dance, or maybe that time on senior trip you fell down a flight of steps and got it on video. Whatever it may be, take a minute for some old laughs, Facebook is your own personal time capsule.
4. Match your bra and underwear.
A secret classiness you'll carry with yourself throughout the day, and no one has to know why.
5. Don't buy anything.
You don't have to buy that snack or drink every time you stop at the gas station, it adds up slowly and can secretly drain your wallet. Research shows skipping your daily regular coffee can save you up to $500 a year, and skipping your fancy daily cappuccino can save you up to $1000 a year! Make your own coffee at home with a reusable cup, and only spend an average of $120 a year!
6. Do something thrilling.
Get your adrenaline pumping! Grab your best friend and do something spontaneous! Snort some Hot Cheetos, or climb a billboard to stargaze. We're young, let's pull dumb stunts until we run out of ideas, and are free of a day job. Make tonight yet another lasting memory.
7. Rub your eyes.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. Simple, yet so satisfying.
8. Write a letter.
Snail mail is so underrated these days! Isn't it fun to get mail that isn't a bill or a catalog? Pick someone worthwhile and send them your love and appreciation. Your mailbox will most likely be more exciting in the near future!
9. Listen to your favorite throwback jam.
Belt it out, I know you know all the words! New music will never beat that song you listened to on repeat for hours in high school.
10. Put down your phone.
Now that you've read my article, chill with the technology. If you're with friends, be good company, and if you're alone, simply choose to do something else with your time. You'll thank me later.
